Reflection of social stratification in the era of Ghaznavids and Seljuks (with emphasis on Ghaznavid Sanai poems and visual arts of the era)

sSocial inequalities are a global phenomenon and one of the most important issues in the field of sociological knowledge that affects all social relations. All human societies have social hierarchies, and this shows that there are social differences and inequalities between different social groups. Thus, social classification has been the main subject of the formation of human societies on the one hand and the intellectual preoccupation of sociologists on the other. In the sixth century, during the Ghaznavid and Seljuk eras, changes were made in Persian poetry, and as a result of these changes, social occasions entered the poetry of poets.One of the sociological foundations is the study of the class structural system of society. According to Sanai's poetry, it can be said that the society of his time is a class society in which it is almost impossible to go from one class to another. Hakim Sanai is one of the poets who has reflected the social issues of the society of his time in his works. The purpose of this article is to provide a theoretical framework of indicators of social inequality in the era of Ghaznavids and Seljuks in Sanai poems in order to assess the value and validity of each of these classes from the poet's point of view
